Fang will be visiting Electa Quinney Monday, January 30th during lunch to kick off our Fang's Reading Program! 

Information will be sent home on Monday about the program. Students read their reading minutes to earn a free soda, hot dog and ticket voucher to Family Night at the Timber Rattler Game on Friday, May 12th at 6:40pm.

No Homework Model


We are hoping “No Homework Model” has alleviated some additional stress on families and allowed for more family time with your child.  Research says that homework in Primary school has zero effect on academic achievement. A reminder that although your child will not be bringing home nightly homework, they are still expected to read 15-20 minutes each night.  Your child’s teacher may be sending home additional items for your child to work on if they did not finish in class. The teacher will be in contact with you if this is the case.  Thank you for helping to make sure your child is still getting in the nightly reading!!!

February Focus = HONESTY

Honesty Newsletter:

It’s not always easy to be Honest in our words, actions, or thoughts with others or with ourselves. Practicing Honesty with ourselves allows for us to identify emotions, be aware of our emotions, regulate emotions, and advocate for our emotions. This month's focus for Quinney Cougars is on using Honesty to help with emotion advocacy.


Conversation Starters:

  • What is 1 strong emotion you had this week? How did you react or respond to it?
  • Share how being Honest with ourselves can help us to be more confident, calm, or focused?

Community Events and Activity Flyers

There are a great many worthy undertakings in the Kaukauna Area School District that understandably deserve public support. The Board of Education/School District assist with this process in providing notice to students and/or families of certain non-school-related community activities/programs that are for public school-age students (that apply and meet policy conditions). Click here or visit the school district website to view the up to date list of events and flyers
